I wasn't even aware any cutting was required. Looks like I'm in for quite a project.
I do have a reciprocating saw though, so at least I've got that covered. I'll make sure all the wiring is out of the way though!
It's a fairly easy thing to do. I took my time to make sure I protected the wiring in that area. I actually put an old shop towel in there and pushed everything to the very back before I cut the dash piece out.
If you search on YouTube you can find a few videos on it. I posted the one I used as a guide in another thread on Double Din stereo installations. The guy in that video used a vibrating cutter to take his out. You can use a dremel with a cut off wheel as well. If you have some one to help you with a vacuum to get the plastic shavings it will help as well. For a week after I did mine the shaving kept falling from under the dash.
